Hello All,

Well the holidays are finally over, and for once, I was actually given some useful gifts; I got a leaf blower, a new tool box, and best of all the third season of Gilligans Island! I keep moving forward on getting my slide show ready...Next time I am in Europe; I am going to try to keep my photography to the absolute bare minimum. This last trip I shot 43 rolls of 120 size color slide film, and it takes me about an hour to mount 30 slides! So, at this point, I only have about 120 done, and I haven't even gotten to Romania yet. Well it will all be worth it in the end. Not too much else to say around here, now that the snow has melted, and it is just cold and wet again--typical Portland Winter.
